So what the hell happened with this? Did Nagai forget to write

Well he did write Great Mazinger and Grendizer which could be seen as conclusions for the serie.

Cuck off xPearse
Nagai is a god

The beginning of Great Mazinger is the finale of Z.

Is that what happened?
MAL says Great Mazinger follows the anime's plot too. I gotta watch that now too then?

>>15731975
There is no great story in both Mazinger Z and Great, but Great bring some kind of closure.
I did not see the anime tho, so I coudn't tell.

>>15731975
No you're fine just reading Great.

Alright, thanks anons.
Guess i'll start Great once i've burned through the other manga i'm currently reading.

>>15732304
No you're gonna drop them immediately and start reading Great.

Just be warned that Great and everything else sucks. Really hard.

It was a tie-in to help promote the show, dummy.

Read the Gosaku Ota version, it is better and there is an ending (the new pilot from Great appears, help Kouji and took over the shit while Kouji and Sayaka are in America studying)

Nagai never gave a shit about Mazinger unlike his baby Devilman.

Z finale part of Great is... well... Great. The actual issue is after Tetsuya takes over since he's a fairly boring character and it soon devolves into something similar to the tv magazine Z chapters.

So why did he ruin both over the years?

What order should I read the Mazinger series?

>>15736052
Mazinger > Great Mazinger > Grendizer
There's a bunch of others out there like God Mazinger and Mazinger Angels that are spin-offs that you can read in any order. Personally I vouch for Zero being the best Mazinger manga, shame it's only half translated.
